Estimate this!!!

Just want to see what the various prices around the country are for this job. I just bid on planting a 170 linear foot border of "big blue" liriope. They need to look good now, so they need to be pretty much touching and of a good width, so nothing smaller than one gallon pots probably. The spacing will depend on how big they come at your local nursury. I submitted the bid today, and I think the guy is pretty shocked at my numbers. Let me know what you all would do it for.

No..no info. needed unless there are some variables that are important that you left out?... otherwise.. if its as simple as planting 170 (1) gal. Liriopes, then I'd bid about $2800.00 -low end to $3400.00 highest.

Very hard to tell how to bid cause you siad they need to be touching. Did they want them two wide or three. Just for 170 only they won't be touching right away. My area 170 cost 4.5 - 5 for that many probably could get them for 3.99 in quantity. $1695.75 installed for 170 1 gal. any other variables? For $ about 3400 could plant 340.
